A dispute on the West Side of San Antonio escalated into violence last night, leaving one man in critical condition after being stabbed multiple times, authorities say. The altercation took place in the 1900 block of Montezuma, near Guadalupe Street, just before the clock struck 10 p.m., according to a report by KSAT. The San Antonio Police Department is currently investigating the incident.
The argument, the details of which remain unclear, spiraled out of control leading to one of the men wielding a weapon and the subsequent stabbing of a 38-year-old man; the assailant then fled the scene in a red pickup truck, a piece of information noted by News 4 San Antonio. No specific identifiers for the vehicle were provided as of the latest updates.
Emergency responders transported the victim to the hospital where he remains in critical condition, seeking to recover from the violent wounds inflicted upon him, as per SAPD reports. The search is ongoing for the suspect who is at large, and the community has been alerted to the possibility of an armed individual on the run.
SAPD, which continues to piece together the details surrounding the ordeal, has not released further information on the identity of either individual involved nor have they disclosed what may have initiated the argument that night. Residents with information about the incident or the red truck are urged to contact the authorities, in hopes that resolution may come to this act of brutality that has occurred on Montezuma Street.
